Enhanced disclosure
These are for posts that involve a far greater degree of contact with children or vulnerable adults.
In general. the type of work will involve regularly caring for, supervising, training or being in sole charge of such people. Examples include a teacher, scout or guide leader.
Enhanced Disclosures are also issued for certain statutory purposes such as gaming and lottery licences.
This level of Disclosure involves an additional level of check to those carried out for the Standard Disclosure. An Enhanced Disclosure includes a check on local police records. Where local police records contain additional information that might be relevant to the post the applicant is being considered for, the Chief Officer of police may release information for inclusion in an Enhanced Disclosure. Exceptionally and in a very small number of circumstances (typically to to protect the integrity of current police investigations), additional information may be sent under separate cover to the Countersignatory and should not be revealed to the Applicant.
